WHAT DID I LEARN IN 2017?

It’s  a few hours ,no several  hours, before we say good morning, good afternoon  , good night, and good riddance to 2017.

So much has happened not only all over the world , but in the United States  as well.

I’m  not one and never have been  one to make New Year’s  resolutions . 

It’s  not that I  don’t think that I could keep them, the whole idea of making them seems like a real  waste  of  time  to me.

I’m not knocking those of  you  who  do make them though.

Do you boo.

While looking at the other social media  platforms  that I follow ,  I saw this question . 

What  did you learn in 2017?

I learned a few things, like how to cook spaghetti  a lot better than before.

I learned to appreciate  New York  City  a lot more than I did when I was younger.

All those museums  that I found boring as a child now as an adult I want to visit as often as I can.

I learned to appreciate and cherish family members that I  haven’t  seen since the  1980’s.

Most of all the main thing that I’ve  learned in 2017 is that I’m  not  as young as I used to be, so when this 64 almost 65 year old body breaks down and gets sick, that’s  God’s  way of telling me one thing.

“Slow it down before it breaks  down”

I hope that in 2018, it’s  a lesson that I  won’t  forget and will always remember  from now on.

Happy  New  Year and a safe and  healthy 2018 to all of  you.
